Follow-up: let it sit disconnected for a few hours, now it works. Don't know what happened. Probably new firmware took time to settle down. (While disconnected? A mystery).
Turned it On, began increasing input V, it woke up - veeery slowly. Opened at 15-something, for a minute was running 0.1A current, then jumped to 10A (DC power supply can't do more). Victron opens at a higher voltage than a couple of other controllers, this isn't new, but it used to open up and jump at once to maximum possible current. Must be new firmware, fine with me. As before, once it opens, input V can go a bit lower, it will still charge. Love new firmware. They added "Adaptive absorption time" and "Tail current". Something akin Morningstar and (defunct) US-made Rogue. Too bad they didn't at the same time upload three-line display and on-board interface with buttons like in Rogue.
